April 27 wed after Easter

We walked from Bocadillo to Carrion de Los Condes. It is about 16 miles. We have to stick with the book. Now and go where they suggest because there are miles of land without places to stay. We had a lovely walk along a canal with locks. Very much like the midi canal in France where we rented those long cigar boats. So we walked  listening to the birds. We then took a detour. One path was next to the road the other wandered thru farmland and beside a river. That is the one we took.  We got into Carrion early and are staying in hostel Santiago. It is a hotel and has both private rooms as well as rooms for 5 we took the room for 5. It is 10 euros each and she washed our clothes which we put on the line Anton, one of our mates, is here also he got hurt and had to slow down. We went out to lunch and I had a typical tuna salad with white asparagus and red peppers as well as tomatoes lettuce and tuna. I wanted to try the soup bit no soup. Stu had shrimps and of course beer He had already eaten 2 small Bocadillo that the hostel owner gave him  they were fren chbread with egg. We visited the chuch which is beautiful  and prayed for all of you We saw the city and even laid in the park in the sun We went to the farmacia to get more bandages I could not describe the problem with Stu's foot so he took off his shoe and sock. A picture is worth a thousnd words. As is his foot.
